Physically, the system restore point files are located in the root directory of your system drive (as a rule, it is C:), in the folder System Volume Information.

Click Add and enter the name of the user which should be granted access rights. Click OK.

Files and folders in this location cannot be deleted manually because they are protected by the system. If you want to clean up the directory System Volume Information, use standard tools allowing you to delete Windows restore points.
